38: 008 The New Soldier Life of Little Pervert 2
For a moment, everyone was startled, holding their breath, forgetting what to do next!
Just when Ning Jiu thought that Gu Xiaoxi would be hit hard by a basketball,
the girl who had been facing away from everyone suddenly jumped up, performed a beautiful somersault kick, kicking the ball with an inverse hooking motion.
That aloof silhouette, like a chivalrous character from a wuxia novel, executed an arrogant kick, carrying a wildly captivating counterattack force.
The basketball was kicked back, following the trajectory it had come from, charging towards the person who had thrown it.
The person did not expect Gu Xiaoxi to do that and was too late to dodge.
The basketball smashed hard into their stomach, sending them flying backward, landing clumsily on the concrete ground.
“Ah!
It hurts!” Zhang Jingyue clutched her stomach, feeling as if all her internal organs were shattered, the pain twisting her face and instantly turning her lips ghastly pale.
Gu Xiaoxi’s movement was smooth and connected, like a flying swallow, she somersaulted and stood firm, as steady as Mount Tai.
She dusted off her hands, glancing back at Zhang Jingyue, who was lying on the ground, with dark, indifferent eyes and a calm expression.
On one side, seven or eight instructors were still stunned, not having recovered from Gu Xiaoxi’s impressive counterattack movement with the inverse hooking kick.
Qin Chu’s mouth twitched, a little freak is a little freak.
With those skills, who would dare to be presumptuous in front of her!
Zhang Jingyue had taken a silent defeat; she never would have thought that not only would Gu Xiaoxi catch the ball, but she would also return it with a ‘gift’ several times more fierce!
“Zhang Jingyue, how did your ball fly over here?
I didn’t mean to hit it so hard.
Are you okay?” Gu Xiaoxi said, hands in pockets, her chin held high with an innocent look on her face.
It seemed as if she was saying that the counterattack wasn’t intentional.
But everyone knew she had done it deliberately!
Otherwise, who could kick a basketball back so precisely along its original trajectory?
That would be too much of a coincidence!
Two girls helped Zhang Jingyue stand up, and hearing Gu Xiaoxi’s words, they immediately became furious and irate, saying, “Gu Xiaoxi, you did that on purpose!”
“On purpose?” Gu Xiaoxi scoffed disdainfully, her lips curving into a beautiful arc, “I saw a ball flying towards me and instinctively kicked it away in fright.
Sorry, I didn’t know you were the one who threw it!”
Gu Xiaoxi’s tone was cold, her voice laced with disdain.
Although it sounded like an explanation, it clearly came across as provocation to the other party’s ears.
Not only did she lack any attitude of regret or reflection, but her eyes also showed contempt.
“Both of you shut up!” Zhang Jingyue, enduring the pain, stopped the two girls beside her.
At this time, Zhang Jingyue’s platoon leader, Lu Xian, finally reacted, and he became infuriated.
Pointing at Gu Xiaoxi, he bellowed, “How could you be so ruthless to a comrade?
Where is your military quality, Gu Xiaoxi?”
Before Gu Xiaoxi could speak, Ning Jiu suddenly threw the ball in his hands, looking at Lu Xian fiercely, “Shouldn’t that question be asked to your Zhang Jingyue?
She threw the basketball at Gu Xiaoxi first; couldn’t she hit back?
You should be asking where your Zhang Jingyue’s military discipline went.
Attacking from behind, that’s what’s truly shameful.
She doesn’t deserve to wear that military uniform!”
Gu Xiaoxi stood there, her gaze falling on Ning Jiu, whose face was ashen and normally cheerful face now clouded with anger.
She hadn’t expected Ning Jiu to stand up for her at this moment and confront the platoon leader of the second platoon.
On the basketball court, it was only a moment, but the atmosphere among the instructors turned tense and hostile.
Lu Xian trembled with anger, glared at Gu Xiaoxi, turned to gaze at the pale-faced Zhang Jingyue, and barked viciously, “Why did you suddenly throw the basketball at Gu Xiaoxi?”
He clenched his fists, his expression one of utter disappointment and frustration.
Zhang Jingyue gritted her teeth, her fingers cracking as she grasped tightly.
She glared at Gu Xiaoxi, eyes filled with resentment, and said to Lu Xian, “Report!
I heard she’s good at catching.
I wanted to test her!”
“And then what?
Do you have any idea of the consequences of your actions?
You’ve completely disgraced our Second Platoon!” Lu Xian, hands on his hips and lips turning blue with fury, wished he could turn back time so that the incident had never occurred.
It was too shameful, a direct hit to his own reputation.
The soldiers he had trained, the ones he took pride in, had done something like this, and right in front of him, no less.
“Report!
I’m sorry!” Zhang Jingyue bowed her head, enduring the pain in her stomach, on the verge of tears.
She was already a strikingly beautiful woman, and this sudden show of vulnerability tugged at the heartstrings of the tough men around her.
Lu Xian was about to speak, intending to send Zhang Jingyue to the infirmary to get treated and to punish her the next day.
But Gu Xiaoxi stepped forward, walked up to Ning Jiu and said, “Report, Platoon Leader, I’m sorry.
I wasn’t paying attention.
I accidentally hit Zhang Jingyue.
I am willing to accept the punishment.”
Gu Xiaoxi was under Ning Jiu’s command, and his protection of her was as natural as Lu Xian’s instinctive protection of Zhang Jingyue.
Caught off guard by Gu Xiaoxi’s words, Ning Jiu didn’t react at first, but after a moment, he grasped her intent, glanced at Lu Xian, then said to Gu Xiaoxi, “Since you realize your mistake and are willing to correct it, your punishment will be to carry a weight of twenty kilograms and run ten kilometers.
You can sleep only after completing the run!”
Such a punishment!
Gu Xiaoxi lifted her chin defiantly, her gaze provocatively settling on Lu Xian and Zhang Jingyue.
It was clear that Lu Xian had wanted to shield Zhang Jingyue, even when she was in the wrong.
Gu Xiaoxi, having made the error passively, was instead actively requesting punishment!
Thus, Zhang Jingyue, the one who had actively erred, would inevitably not escape today’s plight.
That was just how Gu Xiaoxi operated, blatantly setting Zhang Jingyue up and leaving everyone present without any grounds to object.
If someone dared to shoot her in the back, she would ensure they tasted what it was like to be on the receiving end.
Lu Xian stared at Ning Jiu, so angry his face could drip blackness.
He glared at Gu Xiaoxi through gritted teeth and then turned to Zhang Jingyue, “Carry a weight of twenty kilograms and run twenty kilometers.
Start now, and you can sleep after you’ve finished!”
This punishment was deliberately doubled compared to Gu Xiaoxi’s, to demonstrate the instructor’s fairness and impartiality.
Gu Xiaoxi snorted coldly; ten kilometers was nothing more than a leisurely walk for her.
But for Zhang Jingyue, twenty kilometers could strip her raw.
What’s more, Gu Xiaoxi’s recent ‘return gift’ was definitely enough to make her suffer.
Gu Xiaoxi smiled coldly; a drop of water in need shall be returned with a spring in deed.
Give her an inch, and she’ll return a yard.
Her motto, applicable to everyone.
